I am lonesome of plenty
Small limbs of a broken tree
Always looking to the ones above
For conduction,strength and safety.
One little limb trying
To keep the others from breaking away
Who will fall?
And who will stay?
Now I stand by myself
Looking at the earth through the rain
And I see the broken branches I knew
stray about me in pain.
We always found the way to hide the hurtful mistakes with some super sticker.
And some how ultimately the glue could hold no more.
There are these who have taken an axe
To the root of our very basis
And who have passed this demolition
Down to each recent generation.
If I could pick this axe
I would throw it deep into the lake
Never to come back again
To injure the generations that follow me.
How am I going to care for myself?
I can't even say, 'I've still got my healthiness!'
For too many years, I would sit lonely and weep.
Please Lord I need to know just, how am I?
I am one of many
But I know my life is different
And I know I can't turn back.
But alone I will go
And plant the new seeds
Where a beautiful tree will grow.
i wrote this poem to the book "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" from Stieg Larsson..it should represent the feelings and different phases from Harriet Vanger..and the Vanger Clan in general
